- "Ever So Lonely" is a song written by Steve Coe and originally recorded by Monsoon with Sheila Chandra on vocals. The single became a No. 12 hit in the United Kingdom following a re-release in March 1982, staying on the UK Singles Chart for nine weeks. It was also a hit in Ireland, the Netherlands, and Australia but was never released as a single in the United States. Chandra was aged only 16 and had just left school when her first single was a hit.
Monsoon was an early 1980s UK world/pop trio that consisted of singer Sheila Chandra, record producer Steve Coe, and bass guitarist Martin Smith. Their song "Ever So Lonely" was a number 12 hit single in the UK Singles Chart in 1982.
2002 saw the release of a remix of her original hit single "Ever So Lonely", retitled "So Lonely", by the DJ Jakatta. It charted at No. 8 in the UK.
In the same year she performed a song titled "Breath of Life" (retitled "The Grace of Valar" in its 2006 release) with Howard Shore for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers soundtrack.

Sheila Chandra's voice is truly the
"Spirit of ecstasy" 🙏🧡
Love this, hard to believe it's 39 nearly 40 years since, this was a hit
Wow! Sounds like 90-s. But it's only 1982.
it was sampled in the 90's: RMB - Love Is An Ocean
Molto Bella. Grazie Mille Buona Serata 😘❤👌💃💃
This is amazing. *Hiding in plain sight, turns out Sheila Chandra later performed as the lead singing voice on the _Lord Of The Rings_ movie scores.

Sheila Chandra!!
Oh I've loved this since the 1980s. I don't care if it is an insult, I just wanted to know.
Takes me right back 😃
Beautiful ❤️ song Beautiful 💖 Lady
❤❤❤
I think it's one of the first progressive house track. Sounds like music 90's, but not 80's
when this was on in 82, I did not think it had arrived a decade too early
Appreciate the music, please!
Tomorrow Never Knows... when you will come across something that sounds... like a Beatles track...
Cool song by them.
Good.track
Uskumatult Hea väljakaevatud, siiani tipp tulem. Armas, Jõuline. 😏 🎶🎤🎭👌
Sheila Chandra playing Sudhamani Patel in Grange Hill
Great song, brilliant voice, I think this lovely lady was in Grange Hill ?.
I love the colonial English guy at the piana!
👋👋👋💃💃💃🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍🍓
She was 17
Lovely, but why the Egyptian sphinx? Was it another Jocky Wilson moment by TOTP?
Muy bonita, look like watching Indian song
I do wonder about the Egyptian sphynxes. Alexander went from Pakistan (or whatever it was then) to Egypt, not the other way round. Any explanation? (I'm drunk). ❤
I take it this isn't an insult to one of the sub-continent's cultures because no one has complained. Is that the truth?
Ever so so so re-re-repititive....
